This Ain’t Grandma’s Sweet Potato Casserole

Ingredients:

• 4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cooked
• 2 tablespoons Earth Balance
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 5 tbsp pure maple syrup
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 3/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
• 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon 

Topping:

• 1/4 cup margarine
• 1/2 cup Sucanat (or brown sugar)
• 1/3 cup spelt flour
• 3/4 cups chopped pecans (I didn`t have- optional)

Directions: Preheat the oven to 350 F and lightly grease a 2 quart casserole dish with canola oil. I wipe a bit on with a paper towel. Peel and then boil sweet potatoes until tender. Mash the sweet potatoes with the margarine until smooth. Add the milk, vanilla, maple syrup, sea salt, nutmeg and cinnamon. Pour into casserole dish. Next, mix the topping ingredients together until well-combined. Sprinkle topping mixture over the casserole and bake for approx. 50 minutes,
checking it every so often. Serves 7-9.
